    I'm sure Lady Decade will probably explain this in the follow up video delving deeper into these fascinating "minus worlds" (which is really a nonsense term for them), but the reason why 36 shows up as a blank space is because of the way numbers are displayed. It uses numbers 0-9, then A-Z. So if you were to access world 10-1 for example, it will appear as A-1 in the game. 35-1 appears as Z-1, but then the game runs out of letters and things get quite bizarre from there. After 35, the game starts to use random little pieces of sprites and other graphics up until 256. After that it wraps back around, starting at world 0-1.
    I had a Game Genie as a kid, and that allowed me to explore a ton of these negative worlds (which is a much more accurate term to describe them.) Basically, data for worlds not accessible in the game through normal means is nonexistent, so the game takes other non-level data (could be item or enemy data for example) and interprets it as level data. This results in very illogical and screwed up levels, some far more messed up then others. Most are very playable, but some will require codes to make them playable due to issues such as instant time up, walls too high to get over, no ground, and Mario getting stuck in pipe cutscene mode. And of course, trying to access some of these will just freeze the game. Not sure if it'd be possible to play any of those, but to find out you'd have to use a hex editor and find out what the game is trying to load that is causing the crash. Changing whatever value is responsible might make some of those playable, but I don't know even remotely close to enough about it. Trust me, this post makes me sound *way* the hell more knowledgeable about this stuff then I really am.

    While most of this was stuff I already knew because I knew about the minus World thing way back in the ancient RUclips era of the late 2000s when I first joined the platform, I do recall knowing about these other minus levels that you brought up but I actually didn't know how they were accessed. I thought you were supposed to like hack the game and put a flagpole at the end of the original minus level but that's really cool that there's some way to access them without having to do that thanks to that famicom disk system version.

    had a famicom system back in the day complete with disk drive. the first person controller buttons wore out over time with so much game play, we threw it out. the worn out controller and the lack of saving game states after spending like 9 to 15 hours straight on a particular cartridge game (hari kuri docha?) on a regular basis without completing that game were the main two reasons we stopped caring about it. wasting all that time only to die in the end. regretted throwing it out now. we played super mario 2 and 3, gundam, transformers, zelda 1 & 2 a year before it came to the nes, and more.

    Since the game acts like you're in the warp zone at the end of 4-2 and lets you go to world 5 by taking the middle pipe, what happens if you clip through the wall at the end of world 4-2? If you could get to the single pipe before the numbers showed up, wouldn't it warp you back to world 3?

    They mention the minus world even earlier than ‘issue three of Nintendo Power’. In one of the official Nintendo Fun Club News(A precursor to Nintendo Power) they mentioned 4 possible minus worlds. Evidently, their source did not know USA got stripped of all but one of the minus worlds. With this erroneous info in hand I tried to find the other minus worlds but alas they did not exist (At least in the USA version).

  • @FortuneCookieLies
    @FortuneCookieLies Год назад

    The reason the warp pipe doesn't work on the -1 world is because it doesn't load the warp pipe to go to the flagpole. The exploit works because of how it was written and how the game looks for the rules for the world 36. If there was a way to get the warp pipe to load, then world -1 would work and go to another level that would load the rules for it. Famicom looks to different locations and that is why it works. It is really interesting. I still think Mario 3 has more than 3 whistles. My personal theory is that world 3 has one somewhere and that it hasn't been found yet.

    in 1986 (in the USA at least) the arcade version of Super Mario bros HAD those two blocks intact at the end of 1-2. They were later removed from all arcade versions, ALONG WITH a patch that also made the turtles turn into Goomba's on the "rob the turtle" level. Why is the 2nd part important? Because Miyamoto claims that the "100 lives trick" (or whatever you want to call it) was intentional. IF it was intentional, why were those turtles replaced with Goomba's at the end of 3-1 with a chip-patch? You cannot Google this fact, because everyone forgot apparently. I only know about this because i watched the two above things with my own eyes, before and after the patches were installed.
